- Description:
- Combining resolved optical spectroscopy with panoramic HST imaging, we study the dynamical properties of spiral galaxies as a function of position across two intermediate-redshift clusters, and we compare the cluster population to field galaxies in the same redshift range. By modeling the observed rotation curves, we derive maximal rotation velocities for 40 cluster spirals and 37 field spirals, yielding one of the largest matched samples of cluster and field spirals at intermediate redshift. We construct the Tully-Fisher (TF) relation in both V and Ks bands, and find that the cluster Tully-Fisher relation exhibits significantly higher scatter than the field relation, in both V and Ks bands.

- Description:
- Using MegaCam at the CFHT, we obtained a deep narrow band H{alpha}+[NII] wide-field image of NGC 4569 (M90), the brightest late-type galaxy in the Virgo cluster. The image reveals the presence of long tails of diffuse ionized gas, without any associated stellar component extending from the disc of the galaxy up to ~=80kpc (projected distance) and with a typical surface brightness of a few 10^-18^erg/s/cm^2^/arcsec^2^. These features provide direct evidence that NGC 4569 is undergoing a ram-pressure stripping event. The image also shows a prominent 8 kpc spur of ionized gas that is associated with the nucleus that spectroscopic data identify as an outflow. With some assumptions on the 3D distribution of the gas, we use the H{alpha} surface brightness of these extended low-surface brightness features to derive the density and the mass of the gas that has been stripped during the interaction of the galaxy with the intracluster medium. The comparison with ad hoc chemo-spectrophotometric models of galaxy evolution indicates that the mass of the H{alpha} emitting gas in the tail is a large fraction of that of the cold phase that has been stripped from the disc, suggesting that the gas is ionized within the tail during the stripping process. The lack of star-forming regions suggests that mechanisms other than photoionization are responsible for the excitation of the gas (shocks, heat conduction, magneto hydrodynamic waves). This analysis indicates that ram pressure stripping is efficient in massive (M_{star}_~=10^10.5^M_{sun}_) galaxies located in intermediate-mass (~=10^14^M_{sun}) clusters under formation. It also shows that the mass of gas expelled by the nuclear outflow is only ~1% than that removed during the ram pressure stripping event. Together these results indicate that ram pressure stripping, rather than starvation through nuclear feedback, can be the dominant mechanism that is responsible for the quenching of the star formation activity of galaxies in high density environments.

- Description:
- We describe a new wide-field Hubble Space Telescope survey of the galaxy cluster Cl 0024+16 (z~0.4) consisting of a sparsely sampled mosaic of 39 Wide Field Planetary Camera 2 images that extends to a cluster radius of ~5Mpc. Together with extensive ground-based spectroscopy taken from the literature, augmented with over a hundred newly determined redshifts, this unique data set enables us to examine environmental influences on the properties of cluster members from the inner core to well beyond the virial radius (~1.7Mpc). We catalog photometric measures for 22000 objects to I>~25 and assign morphological types for 2181 to I=22.5, of which 195 are spectroscopically confirmed cluster members.

- IR and UV star formation in ACCEPT BCGs

- Date:

- Publisher:
- CDS
- Description:
- We present infrared (IR) and ultraviolet (UV) photometry for a sample of brightest cluster galaxies (BCGs). The BCGs are from a heterogeneous but uniformly characterized sample, the Archive of Chandra Cluster Entropy Profile Tables (ACCEPT), of X-ray galaxy clusters from the Chandra X-ray telescope archive with published gas temperature, density, and entropy profiles. We use archival Galaxy Evolution Explorer (GALEX), Spitzer Space Telescope, and Two Micron All Sky Survey (2MASS) observations to assemble spectral energy distributions (SEDs) and colors for BCGs. We establish a mean near-UV (NUV) to 2MASS K color of 6.59+/-0.34 for quiescent BCGs. We use this mean color to quantify the UV excess associated with star formation in the active BCGs. We use both fits to a template of an evolved stellar population and library of starburst models and mid-IR star formation relations to estimate the obscured star formation rates (SFRs). We present IR and UV photometry and estimated equivalent continuous SFRs for a sample of BCGs.

- Description:
- We present a thorough study of the specific star formation rates (sSFRs) for MIPS 24um selected galaxies in the Coma cluster. We build galaxy spectral energy distributions using optical (u', g', r', i', z'), near-infrared (J, H, Ks), and mid- to far-infrared (Infrared Array Camera and MIPS) photometry. New and archival spectra confirm 210 cluster members. Subsequently, the total infrared luminosity, galaxy stellar mass, and sSFR for the members are determined by measuring best-fit templates. Using an array of complementary diagnostics, we search for any contaminating active galactic nuclei, but find few. We compare obscured SFRs to unobscured rates derived from extinction-corrected H{alpha} emission line measurements. The agreement between these two values leads us to conclude that there is no evidence for an additionally obscured component. In our spectroscopic sample, complete to 80% for r'<19.5, we find that all starbursts are blue and are dwarfs, having masses <10^9^M_{sun}_. Examining the location of these starbursts within the cluster, we confirm that there is a lower fraction in the cluster core.

- Description:
- The authors have used the IRAS data to construct maps of the Magellanic Clouds at wavelengths of 12, 25, 60, and 100 microns. These are contained in the published volume only. The position and characteristics of each source are included in this compilation. Also included are cross references to sources at other wavelengths (H-alpha emission nebulae, dark clouds, and stars) when these could be reasonably identified with the IR sources. IRAS IDs and the DPM field are also given.

- Description:
- We compiled a catalogue of infrared star clusters in the Galaxy, which are most of them embedded. It condenses the growing literature information. We also include in the sample infrared stellar groups which are less dense than star clusters, such as those embedded in the dark clouds Taurus-Auriga and Chamaleon I. We provide galactic and equatorial coordinates, angular dimensions, different designations and related objects such as nebulae. A total of 189 infrared clusters and 87 embedded stellar groups are included. A fraction of 25% of the embedded clusters are projected close to each other in pair or triplet systems, indicating that multiplicity plays an important role in star cluster formation.

- Description:
- We report on an imaging survey with the Spitzer Space Telescope of 62 brightest cluster galaxies (BCGs) with optical line emission. These galaxies are located in the cores of X-ray luminous clusters selected from the ROSAT All-Sky Survey. We find that about half of these sources have a sign of excess infrared emission; 22 objects out of 62 are detected at 70um, 18 have 8/5.8um flux ratios above 1.0 and 28 have 24/8um flux ratios above 1.0. Altogether 35 of 62 objects in our survey exhibit at least one of these signs of infrared excess. Four galaxies with infrared excesses have a 4.5/3.6um flux ratio indicating the presence of hot dust, and/or an unresolved nucleus at 8um. Three of these have high measured [OIII](5007{AA})/H{beta} flux ratios suggesting that these four, Abell 1068, Abell 2146, Zwicky 2089, and R0821+07, host dusty active galactic nuclei (AGNs). Nine objects (including the four hosting dusty AGNs) have infrared luminosities greater than 10^11^L_{sun}_ and so can be classified as luminous infrared galaxies (LIRGs). Excluding the four systems hosting dusty AGNs, the excess mid-infrared emission in the remaining brightest cluster galaxies is likely related to star formation.

- Isolated galaxy pair limited to M<=-18.5

- Description:
- The present paper is devoted to the construction of a catalog of isolated galaxy pairs extracted from the HyperLEDA extragalactic database. The radial velocities of the galaxies in the pairs are in the range [3000, 16000]km/s. In order to get an unbiased pair catalog as complete as possible, we have limited the absolute magnitude of the galaxies to M<=-18.5). The criteria used to define the isolated galaxy pairs are the following: 1) Velocity criterion: radial velocity difference between the pair members {Delta}V<500km/s; 2) Interdistance criterion: projected distance between the members r_p_<1Mpc; 3) Reciprocity criterion: each member is the closest galaxy to the other one, which excludes multiplets; 4) Isolation criterion: we define a pair as isolated if the ratio {rho}=r_3_/r_p_ of the projected distance of the pair to its closest galaxy (this one having a velocity difference lower than 500km/s with respect to the pair) and the members projected interdistance r_p is larger than 2.5. We have searched for these closest galaxies first in HyperLEDA M-limited source catalog, then in the full one. We have managed not to suppress the small number of pairs having close-by but faint dwarf galaxy companions. The galaxy pair catalog lists the value of {rho} for each isolated pair. This method allows the user of the catalog to select any isolation level (beyond the chosen limit {rho}>2.5). Our final catalog contains 13114 galaxy pairs, of which 57% are fairly isolated with {rho}>5, and 30% are highly isolated with {rho}>=10.
